  2. Pullover (exercise) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pullover_(exercise)

    Pullovers can be made to affect either the chest or the back depending on how wide the grip is (barbell) and the position of the shoulders. A research done on the pullover movement using a barbell suggested more effect on the pectoralis major muscle as compared to the latissimus dorsi. [2]

  3. Pull-down (exercise) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pull-down_(exercise)

    Muscles which flex the elbow joint such as the biceps brachii muscle, brachialis muscles and brachioradialis muscle are active to improve leverage. [1] As the biceps originate on the scapula unlike the other two which originate on the humerus, the biceps are inclined to serve a role as a dynamic stabilizer, much as the hamstrings would during a ...

  4. Eden–Lange procedure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eden–Lange_procedure

    Additional muscle deficits can contraindicate tendon transfer, namely the serratus anterior muscle or the muscles-to-be-transferred themselves. Serratus anterior muscle deficit is another cause of scapular winging and decreases the efficacy of an Eden–Lange procedure, but it can be overcome with a simultaneous pectoralis major transfer .

  5. Rotator cuff - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotator_cuff

    Avoiding movement of the shoulder joint allows the torn tendon to fully heal. [24] Once the tendon is entirely recovered, passive exercises can be implemented. Passive exercises of the shoulder are movements in which a physical therapist maintains the arm in a particular position, manipulating the rotator cuff without any effort by the patient ...

  6. Shoulder surgery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoulder_surgery

    After many dislocations the shoulder bones will begin to wear down and chip away. When this occurs, another operation must be done. [citation needed] Coracoid of left scapula. The operation is called the Latarjet surgery. The procedure involves transfer of the coracoid with its attached muscles to the deficient area over the front of the ...

  7. Face pull (exercise) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Face_pull_(exercise)

    The face pull is a weight training exercise that primarily targets the musculature of the upper back and shoulders, namely the posterior deltoids, trapezius, rhomboids, Latissimus dorsi as well as the biceps. [1]

  8. Overhead press - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overhead_press

    Seated military shoulder press. The overhead press, also known as the shoulder press, strict press or military press, is an upper-body weight training exercise in which the trainee presses a weight overhead while seated or standing. It is mainly used to develop the anterior deltoid muscles of the shoulder. [1]

  9. Latarjet procedure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latarjet_procedure

    The Latarjet procedure involves the removal and transfer of a section of the coracoid process and its attached muscles to the front of the glenoid. This placement of the coracoid acts as a bone block which, combined with the transferred muscles acting as a strut, prevents further dislocation of the joint. [ 3 ]
